Show FIREWORKS OF LURID Ki AHE PRUMISEC Holm an Is Billed for a Red-Hot Red-Hot Speech in tho Honsc. WILL MOVE TO RECONSIDER VOTE ON CANNON BILL This Will Give Opportunity to Deliver Address Which May Bo Warm. If Hcprcsontativc Holman makes good iu the house toduy, and thoro is no reason rea-son to doubt but what ho will, there will bo several members of tho federal bunch, several church loadors, and several sev-eral leaders of the church G, O. P. who will want to go into hiding for a while. When the Cannon bill was boing rushed through tho house on Thursday last,) Mr. Holman, who, as a member of tho liouso committee on judiciary, had submitted a minority report, recommending recom-mending that tho bill do not pass, he was naturally incensed at tho way tho majority was pushing matters and he so doc'lnrcd to tho houso. Ue likewise, when ho changed his voto from the ncgattvo to tho affirmative, affirma-tive, in order to movo a reconsideration of the voto by which tho bill passod, gave notico that ho would givo facts and figures regarding tho deal mado during fho campaign of Inst year between be-tween tho brewers and rectifiers with tho parly, by which deal sinows of war in tho way of big round simolcons to the extent of $-16,000 was put up by the brewerfi, and a promiso made to doliver tho bulk of tho liquor voto in Salt Lako county to the church Republican party. Brewers Delivered. Goods. The brewers' part of tho compact was carried out, tho goods wcro delivered, de-livered, and it is now up fo tho church Republican leaders to deliver the goods thev promised. Therefore, Mr. TTolman's remarks will be moro than interesting. Trcmondous pressure has been brought to bear upon him the past three days to induco him not io tell lales out of school; but Mr. Holman lias a mind of his own and ho has nlwa's had the norveto express it, hence a crowded houso will most likely be prosent to hear him. Representatives Hear From Home. There arc also a number of representatives represen-tatives who have heard from the conservative con-servative portion of their constitutcus sinco their vote was recorded iu favor of the Cannon bill. The couvervativc constituency has pointed out facts which the radical clement has overlooked, and the point has been mado that a largo number of Iho signers of the petitions urging tho papsago of a prohibitor3 law are children, aud that many others who appended their names did so without giving the matter a thought; henco it 111:13' 1h that thoro will bo a number of changes and that ihe motion lo reconsider recon-sider will have more votes than fho radical element cares to havo recorded. One member of tho house, ono of the radical members for prohibition legislation, legis-lation, has declared in public that tho senate will act favorably upon the Cannon Can-non bill, but that if it'does not, there will be very few matters that senators desire acted upon this session that will go through; in other words, that cverv pet scheme that a senator has will meet its death when it comes into tho house. Compact iu tho Senate. The compact iu the senate, whereby ten senators at a conference agreed to stand as one man against allowing any prohibitory legislation to pass tho upper house, renin ins unbroken. So-called polls of tho senate are not polls, for the reason rea-son that ncarl3' ovory senator has declined de-clined to express an opinion. It is said that the publication of these polls is simply a tip from tho church leaders that the upper house ma' profit and act accord ing 3 Iu those so called polls of the senate, Senator fievy is put down as one of tho senators who will vofo No on the Cannon Can-non bill. Now the fact is well known that not 011I3' is Senator Scy pledged by his part3' platform, adoptod by tho convention which nominated him, to support and work for temperance legislation, leg-islation, but he is also pledged in writing writ-ing to support temperance measures, This shows how absurd tho alleged poll is and how little reliance can bo placed upon it. Sixth Week of Session. This is tho sixth week of the session. Tt has pretty nearh- reached tho point whoro both houses will have to fish or cut bait. Nothing thus far has bcon accomplished. Tho committees aro loaded with bills, many of which will require a long time to road by the log-islators, log-islators, even after tho3' havo beon reported re-ported upon by the committees. Indications Indi-cations arc that but little will bo done this week. |
